Katie Boulter v Vera Zvonareva Head to Head
The pair have played once before, and that was in Istanbul six years ago, when Zvonareva was forced to retire from their match with an injury.

Boulter’s New Found Status
A year ago, Boulter would have been required to qualify for a tournament such as this.
But now only has she gone straight into the main draw but she is seeded as well, reflecting her new found status as British number one, and WTA title winner, having lifted the trophy in Nottingham.
And having reached a career high ranking, she may not want 2023 to end.
Boulter has also become a familiar figure in celebrity magazines because of her relationship with fellow tennis professional Alex de Minaur.
This will be her first tournament since the US Open where she reached the third round for the first time in her career.
There she beat Diane Parry of France, and Yafan Wang of China, before losing to the American Peyton Stearns.

WTA Tour Veteran Zvonareva
At 39 years old, Zvonareva is one of the oldest active players on the WTA tour and heading towards the end of a long career that has brought her Grand Slam doubles success, as well as 12 singles titles, although the last of those was 12 years ago.
Back in her heyday she was ranked number two in a world, but that is just now a distant memory as she heads towards inevitable retirement.
She has only made sporadic appearances in 2023, and her attempt to qualify for Wimbledon, where she had lost to Serena Williams in the final in 2010, ended in failure.
However, she had better luck in New York, and managed to battle through three rounds of qualifying to make the main draw.
Yannick Wickmayer of Belgium ensured she would go no further than the first round, inflicting a straight sets defeat on her.
This will be her first match since then.
Boulter v Zvonareva Prediction and Tip
With 12 years separating them, Boulter should have the edge when it comes to fitness, and, she should also be full of confidence after her recent achievements.
It is difficult to make too much of a case for the veteran in this match.
